Cary Audio Europe Will be at Bristol!

American High End audio-equipment producer Cary Audio has made the jump across the big pond and is now officially represented and distributed in Europe by MGY OU.
The full range of Cary products is now warehoused in- and distributed from Estonia. This warrants fast delivery and customs hassle within the European Union.

SLI-100 Product Introduction
It is no small feat to develop a product that transcends generations and becomes so ingrained in our society that it immediately conjures images of superior performance and jaw-dropping visions of beauty.

For 20 years, the Cary Audio SLI-80 has been the venerable “go to” for vacuum tube integrated amplifiers. It’s a classic, a legend, a giant, and has reigned supreme all these years due to its performance to price ratio right up through today. Like the Porsche 911, the SLI-80 has had many variants over the years, some enhancements under the hood, some in style, but all improving upon its core design and performance.

Today, we are excited to announce a new era while paying homage to the past in keeping the “SLI” moniker with the brand new SLI-100. Putting the SLI-80 and the SLI-100 side by side, one can still notice the roots of which the SLI-100 has come to bare. From the off-set output transformers, triode/ultra- linear switches, and purest but updated front panel controls, the SLI-100 looks hauntingly familiar while setting a new standard for vacuum tube integrated amplifiers.

The SLI-100 is a dual mono design and utilizes the KT150 tube in its circuit delivering 100 watts of ultra-linear power and 50 watts of triode power, switchable on the fly. Other output tubes can be used in its circuit as well, like the KT88, 6550, EL34, etc., allowing owners to tube swap to their heart’s content. The SLI-100 has 4 line inputs and a headphone jack. With regards to the headphone circuit, it is not the circuit you get with many other products. The headphone jack in the SLI-100 is fed a pure musical signal directly from the amplifier’s output transformers utilizing the full sound quality of the SLI-100 tube circuitry. The SLI-100 will come standard with a removable cage cover.
